GOOD GYMI have been with pure gym for about 8 months now. I really like the gym although there is always a horrible smell when you enter the stairs leading upto the changing room and its so off putting. Also, Some classes at 8pm (not just virtual ones) would be really useful for people starting work at 9:30. Also, the black matted area needs to be bigger as its always full.
But great equipment and I enjoy most classes x

ReliableSigned up 3 months ago now. There's always been equipment available and a good mix of it. Done one class which was good as well. Should perhaps do multiple classes at the peak times instead of keeping it to only one session. Also the bar bells only go uo to 20kg, would like some heavier ones. Also only one water fountain.

Great gym.Signed up in November, really enjoying so far, wish there were a little bit more space to work out in front of mirrors or space for a mat workout.
